DVD Review: What Happens in Vegas (Extended Jackpot Edition) - Page 2

“Sitting Down With Cameron and Ashton” - This feature has both Ashton and Cameron sitting down and talking to each other about their roles.  It starts of very stiff and doesn’t really get much better; they do talk about the differences between men and women when it comes to deciding who they’ll sleep with, (most women are more choosy than men, but that’s nothing new) which is kinda of interesting, but this feature is mostly dull.

“DVD Extra Time with Zach Galifianakis” – this is comedian Zach Galifianakis (who has a small role in the film) interviewing director Tom Vaughan.  I like Galifianakis, but his brand of comedy is out of place here and just awkward.

Speaking of awkward – “From the Law Firm of Stephen J. Hader, Esq”. – is a commercial featuring Rob Corddry who plays Jack’s friend & lawyer in the film.  Here he offers his legal services to the gay community so they can get a divorce, this is just unfunny and offensive.

Six deleted/extended scenes make up the next feature and don’t add anything to the film, nor would they improve it.

Finally we have a Gag Reel this was worth watching and features Miller, Corddry, and Galifianakis providing alternate takes of their lines and is pretty funny.  It’s too bad that the film wasn’t this entertaining.

All in all What Happens in Vegas isn’t really worth your time, they say “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” this film should have been buried out in the desert of Vegas like Bugsy Segal is rumored to have done back in the day.
